Stove & Oven Removal

Yes. The average stove contains between 100 and 150 pounds of steel, all of which can be recycled. In fact, when you purchase a new appliance, you’re almost always buying recycled.

Some recycling centers will pay you for the total weight of metal your stove contains. The current value of steel is between 2 and 4 cents per pound, but the rate is variable and could spike or dip depending on demand. Recycling centers may not pay quite as much as you’re expecting, but the positive effects of recycling greatly outweigh the consequences of dumping a stove in a landfill.

You can haul your stove yourself, or you can hire an eco-friendly junk removal company like LoadUp. We will always do our best to make sure your stove is properly disposed of – including recycling and donation – whenever possible.

Maybe. Many charities don’t accept large appliances like stoves or ovens, and are very picky about those large appliances that they will accept.

If you don’t feel comfortable moving it yourself, you can contact a junk removal company like LoadUp to do all the hard work for you. LoadUp always tries to donate or recycle used appliances so they don’t end up taking valuable space in our landfills.

There are some nationwide charities, including The Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity, that may accept donations of stoves or ovens that are in good working condition. Since not all charities can accept large appliances, you’ll want to check with them before attempting to haul your old stove to a donation center. Kitchen appliances like stoves and ovens are very heavy and difficult to move, so make sure you have the proper tools and help before attempting to transport your unwanted appliance.
